Mississippi HB125 requires the Department of Human Services to transfer 30% of the TANF block grant to the Child Care and Development Fund for child.

Mississippi HB125 amends the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program to mandate that the Department of Human Services transfer 30% of the TANF block grant received by the state each fiscal year to the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF). This allocation is intended to be used as vouchers to cover child care costs for qualifying children under the Child Care Payment Program (CCPP). The bill outlines specific eligibility criteria for TANF benefits, including work requirements and school attendance mandates for children.
